Hello I am a first time poster. I just finished having my clutch replaced on my 2017 M240i 6Spd RWD, and wanted to share my input on my Clutch and Flywheel selection.
I opted for the Single Mass Steel Flywheel from Clutchmasters (P# FW-340i-SF) paired with the 550i Luk Clutch Kit (P# 03-081). So far the car feels great. It still has the OEM Pedal feel and the Single Mass Flywheel frees up a good amount of weight without being to aggressive. I can tell it likes to rev a bit faster and it is more noticable when I watch the revs fall. I am still in the Break in stage, so I have not driven it hard yet. But I will update once I have broken in the clutch. My car has a Stage 2 MHD Tune so I am just babying the car around for next 500kms or so. If there are any other 6 speed manual owners around that have been looking for a clutch replacement option without breaking the bank, I have to recommend this combo. It is a good cost effective option that is relatively OEM plus. Hope this helps anyone that is looking to have their clutch changed in the near future. ***UPDATE*** 06/07/24 Finished doing the break in process and I have to say it’s a great OEM+ option. The lighter Steel Single Mass Flywheel is perfect for street. Would recommend to other 6mt Owners. |

As long as you order new hardware and other supporting parts/hardware, then you shouldn’t have any issues. Car feels great now! Would recommend to other 6mt owners looking for a street/sportier clutch & flywheel. |

Same experience with the flywheel here, except I opted for the Clutchmasters FX250 clutch with the sprung hub. My understanding is that a sprung-hub clutch helps mitigate the racket made by a SMFW, but the 550i clutch is designed to be used with a dual-mass. Any NVH issues? In my car it's a bit noticeable idling with the A/C on and under load <1600 RPM, but I have Rogue Engineering transmission mounts as well.
